Goshawk Engine - Carburetter Throats.

We send herewith two blue prints of "H" Scheme 582 showing the modifications which have been made to the Goshawk engine recently run for Bench trial by the Experimental Department. This drawing was given to the Experimental Department for the purpose of the trial run, and so far as we are aware these diameters were found to be quite satisfactory. We suggested that the alteration should be carried out by filling in the throats with solder and then scrapping or reaming out to the required size.
